    [PATCH] ia64: make hugetlbfs page size a boot-time option · 5a588e5b
    Kenneth W. Chen authored
    This patch makes it possible to select the hugetlbfs page size at boot-time,
    rather than at compile-time.  We believe we have resolved all the remaining
    issues.  All critical speed path has been taken care of, i.e., vhpt handler
    and context switch.  There should be no performance penalty with this dynamic
    hugetlb page size feature.
    
    We would like to thank Jack Steiner for his initiative on this feature
    and his initial cool working patch.
